As the year nears its end, the weather is also getting colder, meaning it’s time to break out the winter clothes. As always, South Korea is at the forefront of chic winter fashion. Wanna know what’s about to trend when the temperature drops? Here’s your cheat sheet for the Must Have Korean Winter Fashion 2024.
Puffer jacket
In Korea, winter temperature can easily go sub zero any moment. That’s why a good puffer jacket, with padded structure giving ample shield against the cold, is an essential winter outfit. But functionality doesn’t mean you have to sacrifice style. There are plenty of ways to wear these puffy jackets in style, like this The North Face cropped black jacket and slim pants combo worn by idol-actress Son Na Eun. There is also the standard length jacket from Marithe Francois Girbaud that you can pair with casual clothes inside, as Go Youn Jung wears here.

Knitted beanie
A knitted beanie adds a great deal of insulation to combat the freezing temperature. It also serves as the perfect winter accessory for your bundled-up ensemble. This Charles Jeffrey Loverboy beanie cap is loved by top idols such as Stray Kids’ Hyunjin and Felix, as well as Lisa of Blackpink.
Cardigan
When you’re just spending time indoors in wintertime, a good cardigan is what you need in your closet. Local K-Fashion brands offer plenty of well-designed cardigans. Brands like Mardi and Rolarola have a selection of very demure, very cutesy cardigans with great materials to keep you warm and chic.
Slim fit turtleneck sweater
The most essential basic top this season is a turtleneck sweater, same as Joy of Red Velvet wears here. A halter-top sweater serves as a solid basis to layer with your other winter getup—scarves, cardigans, overcoats, etc. It’s a great investment to have in as many colors as you want, especially the basics like black, white, and beige. Get yours on local K-Fashion brands such as Matin Kim or Mardi Mercredi.
Leg warmers
Leg warmers might be the fancier alternative to socks, but don’t underestimate how convenient it is for the winter. With the right material and design, leg warmers make the difference when you still wanna show off some legs during the cold months. Just take a look at this head-to-toe Tommy Hilfiger ensemble worn by Nayeon of Twice! Rolarola also has a fantastic range of leg warmers for a local K-Fashion option to complete your fit.
Ushanka Hats
From Suzy to Jennie, all the it-girls love this Slavs-inspired cap! Not only is it extra useful to shield your head from wind and ice, the unique shape will definitely make you stand out among the crowd. Inspired to steal the look? Go for this Marithe Francois Girbaud earflap ball cap.
Oversized scarf
Scarf is a must for the winter. Whatever your ensemble is, it won’t be complete without a bundle of yarn on your neck – an essential for both pragmatic and fashion purposes. Oversized scarves are all the rage among Korean trendsetters, like THE Miss Jang Wonyoung herself. Here she’s wearing a blue checkered AcneStudios scarf so large it nearly drowns her head. But, you know what, wearing one makes your face appear smaller! For the K-fashion aficionados, Andersson Bell has something similar on offer.

Faux fur coat
Want to exude old Hollywood elegance for your winter fashion? Take inspiration from Rosé by layering an oversized faux fur coat on top of your outfit. You don’t need a Saint Laurent coat to be as chic as Rosé; this one by DINT already screams glamor and chic.
Overcoat
Like feminine icons Suzy and Go Youn Jung, you can never go wrong with an overcoat. Overcoats instantly add a dash of sophistication to your look and give your body a more slender silhouette. VOCAVACA and Marithe Francois Girbaud have you covered with their gorgeous selections of overcoats made in wool or leather, whatever you pick!
UGG Boots
And how can we forget footwear? No winter style is complete without a good pair of boots, especially the currently trendy sheepskin UGG boots with its trademark beige color. Everyone from NewJeans, Blackpink, and (G)I-DLE have been seen wearing them, proving its popularity among the trendsetters.
